The brackets to pull the tank up against are easy to do, and weld in. You just have to pull the bed to make it easy.

Personally I would do everything to make a 40 gallon fit since even a diesel will be a bit thirsty in the dually. Such as if your going to drop it heavily. I would raise the bed floor to raise the tank up too. With that being said I would make sure the bumper is tucked up too. At a 5/7 drop, and even more so at a 6/8. You can get high centered in those long trucks, and or drag the rear of the truck up steeper driveways.
I think the burb tanks are 40 gallons.they are pretty big

Are you talking about a blazer tank from a first or second gen?

Now I got some stuff to think about...I can't really take the bed off right now anyways.i got my buds trucking the garage right now.
